Kabul, August 2021: The Taliban occupy the Afghan capital, and US troops withdraw in haste. Amid the chaos, French commander Mohamed Bida is trapped in the last functioning Western embassy. With the help of a forcibly recruited translator, he negotiates with the militias for a final evacuation convoy to the airport: a highly risky endeavor and a race against time.
